There's another site you might want to add... it doesn't "teach" you, but it may be helpful.
Elvish Linguistic Fellowship (E.L.F.) Just thought it may help. -Elrowen

A warning to anyone who wants to learn 'proper' elvish, the Grey Company's elvish is only *based* on Tolkien's, so it's not the real McCoy (as some might say).
